[Birdnet] Cache County Lapland Longspur

[Ryan O'Donnell]

I found two LAPLAND LONGSPURS in Cache County today, in a flock of about
200 Horned Larks.  The longspurs were on 3000N between the Benson Marina
and Highway 23.  Cropped digiscoped record shots are here (1 shows the
first bird; 2 and 3 show the same second bird):

Another highlight in Cache Valley today was an AMERICAN TREE SPARROW
where Highway 142 crosses the Bear River just east of Trenton.
Yesterday I saw four TUNDRA SWANS at the 20-20 Ponds.  I believe someone
previously reported a Trumpeter(s) from this location, but all four
swans I saw looked like Tundras, plus the previously reported MUTE SWAN.
 
Good birding,
Ryan
